An influencer has revealed that she is not worried about being homeless because of pretty privilege.
With house prices soaring, rent getting ridiculous, and mortgages becoming harder to obtain, the housing crisis has been difficult for young people around the world. However, one woman named Emily Webb has found a creative solution to being homeless.
The 25-year-old, who lives on the Gold Coast, Australia, earns a high income from her successful OnlyFans account and boasts over 100,000 followers on Instagram.
But still, Webb has been unable to secure a home due to the brutal rental prices, which is why she rotates between couch surfing with friends and using dating apps to find a place to stay each night.
Watch her video below:
Despite being homeless, the TikToker shared on the social media platform that it doesn't bother her because of her looks.
“I can’t believe I’ve been wasting my money on rent all this time," she announced in the video, adding: "Life hack: If you’re hot, don’t ever pay rent."
Webb said she’s been using dating apps like Hinge to stay at different men’s houses when she wants a break from relying on friends.
She claims that her method lets people stay at different guys' places "for free" and that "nothing bad has happened to her yet".
Webb adds that she can only get a few nights out of each guy, because they eventually cotton on to the fact that she's "using them".
She said that she doesn't reveal her situation to the people she stays with because she doesn't want to "put pressure on anyone," adding: "I don’t think I look homeless.”
The influencer's revelation has left viewers shocked, with the majority of people sharing their concerns for her safety.
"This is a very dangerous game your playing," one user said, while another interjected: "Damn girl be safe!!!!! You don’t know these men."
A third wrote that it's "unsafe" and added: "Careful staying with random people you know nothing about."
The influencer has defended her actions to News.com.au, explaining that despite the money she earns from OnlyFans, she's still been unlucky in the housing market.
"I’ve offered to pay rent six and 12 months in advance and still had no luck," she said. "I have so many friends on the Gold Coast, but I don’t want to overstay my welcome or be a burden, but I don’t mind being a burden to random men."
Webb explained she enjoys "pushing the boundaries" and "taking advantage" of pretty privilege. "You’re only single and hot once," she said.
She is hoping to find an apartment soon and is waiting to hear back on a few applications.
“I’m just applying for apartments and it gives me the space to be picky. I just realized I’m fine without a place. I feel like any day I could have a rental. I’m not extremely stressed,” she concluded.
She added in a post: "I'm going to go ask every hot guy for their number and then see if I can find a place to sleep tonight.
"Otherwise, I'm sleeping in my car. Which is fine, this is comfy as f**k. Not complaining at all."
